Product description
VX Section for cable entry, centre, for W: 1200 mm
Feature: Centre-entry design for VX enclosures. Benefit: Simplifies cable routing from gland plates to the cable clamp rail, reducing installation time and potential bending damage. Application: Ideal for quick, clean top-mounting on gland plates in 1200 mm VX configurations. Feature: Hard PVC material with flame-resistant, self-extinguishing properties. Benefit: Enhances operator safety and reduces fire risk in electrical enclosures, supporting regulatory expectations. Application: Suitable for harsh environments where thermal resilience matters. Feature: Temperature resistance up to +60 °C with PU foam seal. Benefit: Maintains cable integrity and enclosure sealing under typical cabinet operating conditions, cutting service calls for temperature-related issues. Application: Use in control panels with moderate ambient heat. Feature: Supply includes plug-in sections and foam rubber clamp strip. Benefit: Streamlines stock management and reduces field retrofit complexity by providing ready-to-install components. Application: Works with standard gland-plate layouts and common VX/VX SE/CX enclosures. Feature: Note about two pieces per entry point and packs of four. Benefit: Ensures precise fit and consistent supply, improving installation predictability and reducing waste. Application: Plan inventory to cover multiple entry points across large assets. Feature: Cross-section 30 x 25 mm and compatibility with cable clamp rails. Benefit: Enables consistent cable routing with minimal bending radius, lowering risk of cable damage.

FAQs

The VX 8618.803 is designed for top-mounting on gland plates with a centre-entry configuration. You will typically need two pieces per cable entry point to achieve the proper cross-section and secure routing, and the pack contains four plug-in sections to support multiple entries in a single enclosure.
The section is made of hard PVC that is flame-resistant and self-extinguishing, with a temperature tolerance up to +60 °C. It includes a PU foam seal to ensure sealing performance in typical enclosure environments.
Yes, it is specified for VX enclosures with 1,200 mm width and is designed for top-mounting on gland plates. It also fits VX SE and, depending on configuration, CX pedestal and CX one-piece consoles, following the stated compatibility notes.
The data sheet lists ETIM 9 EC000211 and ECLASS 8.0 27142421 classifications. Explicit SIL or CE ratings are not provided, but the product uses flame-resistant PVC and includes sealing for safe operation in standard electrical cabinets.
The design enables simple assembly, precise entry alignment, and direct routing to cable clamps, which reduces installation time, minimizes bending radii-related damage, and lowers lifecycle costs through improved reliability and maintenance efficiency.
